I have been playing golf since I was 11 years old. Grew up in Chicago, played on the high school and college golf teams. Moved to California in 1970. I play a lot of golf, average about 350 rounds a year. The only thing that keeps me off the course is frost. I'll play in rain, wind, fog, heat/cold, etc. I play super early every day because I hate waiting around.
As I age, it has become difficult to accept that I can no longer play to the level I once played too. While I still love the game, I have tended to isolate myself because I am embarrassed by the deterioration of my skill level. However, I am still on a quest to accomplish my long time goal of shooting my age. Finally on October 3, 2020 at age 72, I was able to accomplish my goal of shooting my age. Shot 71 at Coto de Caza - south course from the blue tees.

Everyone had the same idea I guess, which was to beat the heat. Course has handled the temperatures very well. Greens not as fast as normal. (Maybe to protect them?) They still roll well and are very receptive. Fairways have great coverage. Bunkers are good but might seem a bit compacted - they are very "heavy". The course will be closed for two weeks beginning 8/5/74 to aerate the fairways. (Seems like an excessive time?) » Close Out early, on what is expected to be another hot day.

I'm told they punched the greens last week, but they appear pretty much healed. Fairways generally fine, with good coverage. Bunkers not yet maintained, so difficult to be too critical. Always enjoy this course. Enough of a challenge to enjoy, but not penal, so makes for a stress free round. » Close With the expected heat, nice to get out early and finish quickly. Course remains in nice condition. Greens very receptive. However, I noticed a bunch ... » MoreWith the expected heat, nice to get out early and finish quickly. Course remains in nice condition. Greens very receptive. However, I noticed a bunch of unrepaired ball marks, which is not usual for this course? The tee boxes are beginning grow back in, after being over seeded a couple weeks ago. Fairways are really solid right now. Bunkers are fine, but the sand seems "heavy" and tough to play any longer sand shots (Greenside). All in all, very satisfied with the course conditions. » Close Took advantage of an invite from a friend for an early round, which from prior experience is the only good time to play Rio Hondo (Or anywhere for tha... » MoreTook advantage of an invite from a friend for an early round, which from prior experience is the only good time to play Rio Hondo (Or anywhere for that matter) Robert's recent review was spot on, although I thought the greens were a bit quicker than I expected. Certainly not fast, but decent pace. Good coverage in the fairways. The two bunkers I found had well maintained sand. Rough was a bit inconsistent, but never severe.
Always enjoy playing this course. Enough of a challenge without being too penal. A few of the four pars are becoming a bit too long for me, but that too is becoming the norm everywhere I play now. Fun interesting layout at a decent price, and the staff is always good to deal with. » Close First off on what I was concerned might be a foggy morning, but by 7am, everything had cleared, and it was beautiful morning.

As one of my very favorite courses, it is always a joy to play La Purisima. Despite having played here many times, it is always a treat to return. Beginning the day dealing with Staci in the pro shop is a real plus. She is the perfect person to have at that position.
The course was in very nice condition. A number of the fairways were still rather wet from the sprinklers, but otherwise were excellent. Greens rolled very well but were slower than I expected and remember them. Bunkers were great - love the sand here.
Last time I played here they had gas carts, which I do not care for, but they have been replaced by nice quiet electric carts. Much better! While I did not play very well, which is an understatement, I walked off the course totally having enjoyed myself. I think that if you can play poorly and still enjoy your round, that speaks volumes about the course. » Close
